3.0
This book had a strange mix of being pretentious yet predictable, simple yet profound almost as if it were deep but only on the surface. I would say it was a nice easy read but it explores a lot of dark themes rather rashly and the message would likely be hidden behind all the triggers for those the message is intended for.
